Sit Back and Enjoy The Ride

very dramatic skies, lovely.

Explored! Highest Position: #23

Lets continue with Scotland.

My second favourite country out of the 31 countries we explored in Europe and Northern Africa. This is an area just outside of Kildrummy in NE Scotland. When I took this photo I was on the grounds exploring the stunning ruins of the Kildrummy Castle.

This was quite a day, let me tell ya. After visiting Kildrummy we went on an dramatic race to catch our ferry in Dover to head back to France. We thought giving ourselves 12 hours to cross the U.K. with our Peugeot was enough, for us it wasn't. But In the end somehow we made it, thank god!

Check out a map of The Ride

Thanks for the view, I hope you enjoy my photo!
